Please help me
Hi Praveen …
what happened to your Visa exp..
did yu get it..!
Even you have a proper score in GRE &a medium score in TOEFL.Usually VO considers your
GRE TOEFL scores seriously but you dont have an effective academic background then your chances of getting your visa is not been accepted so its better you have to state VO that you had a serious problem or illness in you or your family and while answering this question you have to be serious
coz visa oficers are expecting to hear honest &truthful answers form you. So try this.
Hi,if you call them mam will they accept you?and how much time does the interview lasts?..
edit: you called them mam and they accepted you?..is it a polite word to use?..
what they want to verify?…that i will come back only?…igot my cousin there where i am going to live (if i go) as long i will be studding…
Hey hi….I am having a doubt regarding visa stamping..i am already havin us F-1 visa(which i got recently) but i am expecting adm in a canadian univ.so il i have a prob ? do i have to cancel us visa stampin before I submit my passport to canadian embassy??
Please help me out..
Thanks in advance 🙂

hi,
my interview has been rejected twice..
i dont know the reason…
in DS form, when they ask to enter the two names of your relatives, i filled one name of my friend’s mom. She has been to US one time on visitor’s VISA. my friend is in the US on H1B.
Can it be the reason of my rejection..?
please reply me……………….
yup that might be one reason of that. Never tell them that u have relatives over their.
i don’t agree, if you have immediate relatives i.e. ur blood relationships, bros,sisters & parents, only then mention. else skip ’em.

my b.tech % is 65
with 4 backlogs
toefl-101
no gre
got admitted for 2 universities
can u plz tell me wat kind of ques would i face from vo
plz help me
they generally ask following questions.
1. which university?
2. why this university?
3. ur particular?
4.who is sponsoring u?
5.what does ur sponsor do?
and some questions regarding ur finance.
they do not have too much time. They will ask u only few questions and rest of the things depend on their mood. You have to be very confident with good result(GRE AND TOEFL).
they asked me only 3 questions and decided my future.
Fall 2011 – -Undergraduate
At the US Consulate Shenyang, China
After being refused twice, I got my F1 visa after 45seconds of interview!
VO: Where are you going in the US?
Me: Missouri
VO: Do want a green card
Me: No
VO: Why not? What changed your mind because you once applied for the dvlottery (Annual Diversity Migrant Visa Lottery)
Me: Being the first born of the family, I have responsibilities back home. Also, I want to get my undergraduate before thinking about anything else
VO: keeps typing something on the computer!
Me: Nervous as hell! praying while…..
VO: Ok, Your Visa is approved
Me: Thnx!

hi,
My visa cancelled. The Officer give me a yellow paper..

Dear ,
Does Boston College and William and Mary accept 15 years of education for MS in accounting? That too with scholarship.
MBA I know they do.
You have mentioned that the student got visa for Ms In Accounting
for Boston College. Kindly send me the link please this will be a wonderful option for students with 15 years of education. Infact if you have a list I would really appreciate it.
W&M accepts students with 15 years of education(http://mason.wm.edu/programs/macc/admissions/requirements/international/index.php.Check) this out. Boston wanted me to get the WES evaluation done. So I got it done and they accepted it. Some of the other colleges which accept 3years degree are:
Texas A&M
Notredame
Ohio(with WES)
Wake Forest
Mail me if you need some more info. I have actually done some research on this.
Can any one tell if whether I can have two persons to sponsor me?For example My dad and uncle together has enough money to show during VISA,but none of them has that much cash of their own.So can I tell the VISA people both my uncle and dad are sponsoring me?Please reply as soon as possible.
yea u can say lyk dat..we can say my uncle s also sponsorng me..

Thanks.Good Luck for your Interview.
Gud luck, just had mine (in China)… Got it….
congrats .. so what was you GRE Verbal and Quants ??
Hi, my profile is – GRE 1210 (Q780, V430) TOEFL 111, UG 60%. I got admits from two universities for MS-CS for Fall 2011. (1) Kent State University, Ohio (2) Clemson University, SC. Would anyone please advise me which one is better to select from these two! Many thanks – Tom
Great, congrats! How did he know about your verbal score– did he as for the score report earlier?
Yeah..While checking the documents before the Interview, my score reports and appointment letter was put in a separate folder. I had to give that folder to the Visa officer during my Interview.
Hey,
Congrats man. Glad you received a visa. If every Indian student’s interview goes like this, 221(g) and 214(b) would be from the US Immigration law books. LOL. . . Have a superb time in the US. Good luck.
Best Wishes
Rajkamal
* 221(g) and 214(b) would be DELETED from the US Immigration law books.
Luck also plays a role and one should also be prepared before the Interview. My College name and improvement in my verbal score helped me. Even if you have negatives e, try to put across the positive stuff from your side. This can be done only if you prepare before the Interview.
